Microsoft Visio 26 Sometimes, you might want to combine two or more elements of the diagram together. You can use containers to group shapes that are dependent on each other. Callouts help in inserting more text outside the shape. Callouts are always connected to the shape and move along with it.
Inserting a Container First group the shapes together by
selecting Group in the Arrange section of the
Home tab To insert a container, go to the Insert tab on the Ribbon and click the Container
dropdown menu in the Diagram Parts
section. You will see that there are many designs to choose from for the container.
Once you select a design, you can drag the container around the grouped shapes. Release the mouse to lock the container. The container also contains an area for typing text.
Double-click the heading area to type the text. In the following example, we have labelled the container as End Process.
